14 Things All UT Students Say And What They Really Mean
University of Toledo

College kids say a lot of things. University of Toledo students rarely say what they mean...unless they're talking about how much BG sucks. Then they say exactly what they mean. It's not always the case, however, so here are a few examples of what Rockets say, and what they actually mean.


1. "WhyUT!"


What we actually mean: But really...why, UT?


2. "Can't wait to hit up the club and take some shots tonight!"

What we actually mean: The club is Club Carlson and the shots are espresso because I'm pulling an all-nighter to study.


3. "Let's go tailgate this random event!"

What we actually mean: Let's just use this event as an excuse to party in Rocket Hall's parking lot.


4. "I'm in the mood for something to eat after a night out."

What we actually mean: All I really need is some Oasis/Pita Pit/Jimmy John's in my life.


5. "Let's go behind Engineering!"

What we actually mean: This could either mean: We're going to a party, or we're going to get stabbed tonight.


6. "UT has sooo many problems. #UTProblems"

What we actually mean: Things here are annoying sometimes, sure, but it could be worse! Y'know, like you could go to BG.


7. "I'm a commuter!"

What we actually mean: I paid $125 and had to stalk someone for their parking spot today.


8. "I'm parking in Lot 10, see you in a few."

What we actually mean: I'm parking now but due to this school not having enough spaces and me stalking people for a spot, I will see you in about an hour.


9. "Don't let me end up at Chasers tonight!"

What we actually mean: We're 99.9 percent most definitely going to end up at Chasers tonight.


10. "The squirrels and bees on campus are annoying!"

What we really mean: I dread leaving my room to go to class because I know I'll have to encounter one of these pesky sh*ts.


11. "Wow, our campus is so beautiful!"

What we actually mean: Campus is beautiful to look at when you're not hiking in the freezing wind while crying because your face hurts.


12. "I'm going to Rocket Solutions Central to figure out my financial aid issues."

What we actually mean: I'm going to RSC to take a number, wait in line, and never get help or those two hours of my life back.


13. "I live in Parks."

What we actually mean: I live in a 16-floor tower full of insane college freshmen, so, yes, I'm sleep deprived.


14. "I hate BGSU"

What we actually mean: I hate BGSU.


Go Rockets!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
